"The bastards who mess up always love making excuses for themselves."
Old Li continued to draw on his cigarette, "The cigarette's good, but the person smoking it is a complete asshole."
Gao Peng's face was burning hot from the insult.
"So, big bro, can you tell me who Xiangcao married? If I know she's doing well, I can rest easy, right?"
"You can rest assured," Old Li directly cut off Gao Peng's next bout of nonsense. Don't play the good guy here; it's too late for that. Xiangcao's mom is gone. If it wasn't for the good fortune of Xiangcao meeting a decent family, she and her daughter would be dead by now. How else would they be enjoying such a good life?
"Xiangcao is living a great life, her man is capable, way better than being with you. Dripping with gold and silver, you can't imagine how well she's living."
Each word stung deep, and Gao Peng could only clench his teeth and bear it.
"So, bro Li, who's the man Xiangcao married?"
"Someone from our village, you know him."
